A couple days after my visit with the doctor, Arthur...hasn't been answering my phone calls.

I usually try to reach him once or twice a day but....he hasn't been answering all week.

I'm starting to become concerned,what if something bad has happened to him?

I grab my jacket and head out the door, I'll just drop by for a small visit.




~Time Skip~



I lightly knock on the door of Arthur's apartment,anxiously waiting for a response.


I hear footsteps approaching from the other side, along with the clicks of locks and handles.
Once the door was open,there stood Arthur, looking otherwise okay. His bruise was starting to heal,but it was still noticeable.

He looked at me with surprise,"little miss...~" he gasps.

"Arthur thank goodness~" I sigh with relief, "I've been trying to call you all wee-"





"You shouldn't have come here" he interrupts me,his voice low and emotionless.



"...what?" I question with a nervous laugh,
"what do they mean? I was just worried that something might've happe-"


"Stop Charlotte" He once again interrupts me,
"Just stop okay".

"A-arthur..." I stutter nervously,"w-what's wrong...this isn't like you, did something happen? Did I do something wrong?"


"The Doctor is right..." he speaks,"I'm too dangerous to be around you, we shouldn't have become friends in the first place".

No...

Did he...?


"You heard our conversation last week...~" I gasp in realization,"Arthur I swear I didn't expect her to say those things to me,I really didn't".



"It doesn't matter whether you expected it or not" he says,"what matters is that we end whatever we have, we shouldn't have crossed paths in the first place. You would've done much better without me".


"Don't say those things!" I beg,gently reaching up to hold his cheeks in a desperate attempt for him to listen,"please Arthur, don't do this, I'm begging you!"


He gently takes hold of my hands,and gently removes them from his face.


"Just leave..." he says,"and never come back here again...goodbye little-"

He quickly stops himself,letting out an aggravated sigh.


"...Goodbye Charlotte"



No....



"Arthur wait!" I yell,but before I could get to him, he had already shut the door.

I continuously knock on the aging wood, desperately pounding my fragile knuckles against the hard surface.

"Arthur please!" I beg,"don't do this....I'm sorry!"

I ultimately give up,feeling my knees give out, which causes me to slowly slid down onto the dirty floor. My entire body begins to ache,but somehow I managed keep my tired arms on the door.
